Are you a patient, caregiver, and/or taxpayer? What do you think about health care reform? What questions do you have? How can we make sure your voice is heard?

The Open Health Project provides a public forum for productive dialog about health care. This is a participatory forum (or “table”) dedicated to effectively including patients in the discussion, planning, and evaluation of health care reform.

The current focus of the forum is U.S. health care reform. Global input is welcome.
